When you go to the festival you have to have a strategy. Here are a few of my tips:1. Some shows are so main stream that you have to book them (on the web) before you go to avoid missing out.
2. Try to leave some slots in your program for things that you find out about when you get to Melbourne (some shows are wild cards and you won't get the word on them till you see them at the Hi Fi Bar show or get talking to people in line at actual gigs).
3. Book at Half Tix for the big (desperation) savings. They're open at the Town hall in the mornings. You have to cash the vouchers in at the booking office in Collins Street.
4. Go to the late night Federation Square shows (Laugh a palooza, etc.) they're off beat and fun.
5. Go to cabaret. Some people think it's "old" in Sydney but in Melbourne it's vibrant and sexy.
